They'd better give him some foam padding (Fred too) to put under his arse, then he might be able to see where he's going, and not run off the edge of the road in the braking areas.

And sort the KERS out too, stop it snatching the rear end which only adds to the problem for them (being already too close to the edge cos they can't see the road doesn't help) when the rear end snaps one way or the other cos the KERS isn't harvesting energy consistently.

All mho oh course.

I think he needs that foam padding under his arse after he gets the boot ;)

Hamilton out of contract and being slowly disenchanted with McLaren and vice versa; Felipe Massa almost certainly set to get the boot from Ferrari.

Let's start the rumours :p

Hamilton to Red Bull.

Perez to Ferrari.

Kobayashi to McLaren.

Massa and Webber to happy retirement.

Feel free to quote in 8 months.

As much as that'd be nice... Perez will end up at Ferrari, we all know that. Red Bull will probably stick with their same line-up for another year. I just don't know about Lewis. When he's all smiles you think there's no way he'll leave, but when he sulks like there's no tomorrow you can't imagine him staying.

Well given your general level of accuracy when you start making predictions... nothing will change... :p

How long would Alonso put up with Ferrari however?

I can see him abandon ship after another disappointing season and I can see Vettel go for a new challenge if he wins #3. Maybe Vettel to Ferrari and Alonso to Red Bull??

Or be like Nostradamus. Be vague enough so most things will fit anyways.

There I predicted the WDC winner for the next 100 years. :thumbsup:

Yeah :lol:

Right now I'm more interested by the Concorde Agreement rather than any driver predictions. It's so complex, so political but oh so clever by Bernie.

In the point-and-laugh news of the day, anyone wishing to attend the American Grand Prix and sit in the main stand will have to pay an extra minimum of $2000 for a PSL.

The start-finish line is going to look like Istanbul Park.

What?! Two thousand dollars minimum?! Does the ticket include free alcohol, free hotel room, a chance to meet the drivers, minimum of five strippers and a free blowjob from all of them (strippers, not the drivers)? That might just be enough to justify the price. If it's just a numbered seat for that money, then it's going to be a failure.

Americans just cannot make it easy to catch onto F1. They are building a very nice looking circuit, one of the best of the modern venues, with some great corners, overtaking places, natural gradient. Then they go an make ticketing too complex and expensive.

Too bad they aren't holding the race in June. That would be amusing.

I guess this is the plan to regain the losses the circuit was supposedly struggling with. Similar idea to fund Doningtons upgrades - look how that went.

Its such a terrible idea, I mean do they honestly think people are willing to pay that? I guess we will wait and see but it's certainly going to be one lonely main straight.
